About this Episode
Do you have a minute? We’re collecting signatures for the Orchard Fund. We’re a coalition of activists and thought-leaders dedicated to helping CEOs in the greater Santa Clara area gain the courage to make the pivot from hardware to a services based future, for the sake of our children and our children’s children.
This week: the pink mustache heads to the NASDAQ, Spindrift making Kirkland-sized moves, and AirPower’s quiet cancellation that is either a nothing-burger or harbinger of the end of Apple. A real Schrödinger’s wireless charger, if you will. 🐈.

- Mark Gurman on Twitter: "The AirPower wouldn’t even have made a dent on Apple’s bottom line, but cancelling an announced product, no matter how big or small, is a huge embarrassment. Can’t recall them cancelling an announced device, at least in modern era. Even the white iPhone 4 made it out alive."
